The Most Painful Cycling Shoe Flaw—And How to Avoid It
I get sent a shocking number of cycling shoes. Next to tires, I’ve probably sampled more different shoes…

Dug myself into a hole; unsure whether to pick Ergon GP5 or get some kind of butterfly handlebar.
I believe some kind of ergon might just be a good idea to have some nice cushion. But also enjoy the idea of the butterfly handlebar cockpit and ability for further attachments.
I could go for both... But I think just trying to reflect on what I exactly need might be good :)

I haven’t tried to put the two paniers on the side with this setup. Might not work very well… #bikeTooter #Ortlieb #BikeGear

I figured out I could put the panier rack adapter ON TOP of the rack! I am not off balance when carrying just one panier!
Thanks Ortlieb for making great products and for having a spare parts store. Easy to fix, easy to tweak, easy to hack!

How the fuck can Rocride sell bicycle lube with #PTFE (forever chemical) as "Green"?
Per description:
'Want to save the planet every time you ride? ECO-X All Purpose Bio-Based Bike Lube is the ultimate “Green” lubricant!'
(also their lube seems to give high friction and wear, so I think I will stick to classic Muck Off unless someone has suggestions)

POC Sports has just elevated cycling safety with the unveiling of their new Omne Beacon helmet. Launched at the Rouleur Live show in London, this latest iteration of the popular Omne helmet series stands out with a rechargeable LED rear light, designed to significantly enhance visibility in low-light conditions. The Omne Beacon continues the legacy of the Omne Air, maintaining its acclaimed design while integrating cutting-edge safety features.
Magnus Gustafsson, POC’s Director of hard goods, emphasizes that the best helmet is one a rider will consistently wear. The Omne Beacon makes this choice easier by combining protection with convenience. The helmet’s LED light, which offers various modes and over thirty hours of run time on a single charge, is not just an add-on but a fully integrated feature that’s simple to operate, promoting enhanced protection without compromising on design or usability.
But the Omne Beacon isn’t just about visibility. It also boasts an EPS liner optimized for the perfect balance between low weight and safety, and it integrates Mips technology for additional protection against rotational motion impacts. The helmet’s ventilation system is aero-optimized, and a semi-shell construction ensures a balance of speed and comfort, making it suitable for use all year round.
With reflective elements and high-contrast color options augmenting the integrated lighting, the Omne Beacon stands as a beacon of innovation in helmet design. It’s not just a part of the Omne family; it’s a leap forward in ensuring cyclists’ safety through enhanced visibility and protection.
POC Omne Beacon Specs:
- Integrated Light – The helmet features an integrated light to help ensure others can easily see you in low light conditions. The light is operated manually and charges via a USB-C connection.
- LED Brightness – Vivid mode: 32 Lumens, Steady mode: 24 Lumens, Blinking mode: 24 Lumens.
- Rated IP55, ingress protection against water and dust.
- LED approximate battery duration Vivid mode: ~13hrs, Steady mode: ~17hrs, Blinking mode: ~32hrs.
- A full charge takes approximately 4h.
- EPS Liner – A lightweight EPS liner gives optimized protection.
- PC Shell – The PC shell enhances the structural integrity of the helmet.
- Adjustable 360° fit – A 360° adjustment system makes it easy to find a secure, comfortable fit.
- Mips Integra – Mips Integra seamlessly and almost invisibly integrates rotational impact protection into the helmet.
- Precision fit helmet straps.
- Reflective details to enhance visibility.
- Contrast colours to improve prominence on the road.
- Slimmer profile – thanks to precise depth in core zones of the liner and the optimized coverage of the helmet shell.

Question for year-round bike riding folk: Do you have a rain cape or poncho? What brand and what do you like/dislike about it? I'm looking at options. My Wander Wrap does okay for bottom half but I want more. http://bikestylespokane.com/2015/12/28/great-gear-for-a-rainy-ride-the-wander-wrap/

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/7q3daGJIH402 —My fav indispensable #bikegear device since I discovered 5+ years ago:
#boneconduction #audioAllows to listen partly from external bone vibrations, partly from non-obstructing #auditory #earcanal #meatus speakers
It takes like 3 months to adapt hearing coming both from vibration & sound, but afterwards you will not go back!

A road cycle helmet is a must-have piece of safety equipment for everyone who enjoys road cycling. It protects your head in an accident, increases visibility, and keeps you cool and comfortable on extended rides. With so many terrific helmets on the market, there's no reason not to buy one right now. #bikehelmet #bikegear

Even the best gear doesn't last forever. I just got a new GroundEffect vest for my daily bike commute. My old one finally wore out after about 15 years of use.
Designed and made in Aotearoa-New Zealand!

I don't doubt these are great items, but PRICEY. $160 for a pair of pants? I bought 3 pairs of stretchy gym pants from Uniqlo for a total of $100. They're great for biking.

-17°C/1°F for a seven mile ride today. Interesting experience on the street part of my ride. One jacked pickup was very considerate. Another felt the need to step on it and make noise. Not positive if that was due to me though. Anyway, too cold to stop for a scenic pic during the ride, so I present these Bar Mitts. First time riding with them and definitely now recommend for particularly cold rides. #wintercycling #minnesota #BikeGear #winter #rochmn

I have a double-layer rack made to hold an e-bike battery and want to replace the battery with some kind of luggage box. I'm not using the battery so seems like wasted space, does such a thing exist? #cyclingtwitter #bikegear #bikecommuting
